Improved Alkaline-Activated Slag Composition: Green Mortar Solution

The invention relates to the development of both an improved alkaline-activated slag (AAS) composition as well as a dry mixed ready-to-use alkaline-activated slag (AAS) composition. The ready-to-use AAS can be pre-packed into bags and used as ordinary Portland cement, thereby eliminating the need for an alkaline solution. Furthermore, it can be mixed with water to produce concrete.
